Eintracht Braunschweig vs Saarbrucken Preview

Saarbrucken have no other choice but being aggressive after losing the first tie at home. They scored 11 goals in four league games under the new manager, so I am predicting a high-scoring affair on Tuesday.

HTH

Eintracht Braunshweig have an 8-3 advantage against Saarbrucken with 2 draws in 13 matches.

The first tie was played on last Friday where Eintracht Braunschweig won 2-0.

Eintracht Braunschweig Form

Eintracht Braunschweig’s recent form in 2. Bundesliga was disastrous, securing just two points from the final four rounds which was not enough to escape relegation playoffs.

As a consequence of this run, they sacked Daniel Scherning and appointed Marc Pfitzner as the caretaker manager.

New managed had an immediate impact, Eintracht Braunschweig winning the first tie against Saarbrucken 2-0 last Friday, Lino Tempelmann and Marvin Rittmuller finding the net in second half.

Saarbrucken Form

Saarbrucken finished 3rd in the German 3. Liga campaign with 65 points after 38 rounds, five points behind 2nd and directly promoted Dynamo Dresden.

They appointed Alois Schwartz as the new head manager in late April and won first two games under his leadership against RW Essen 3-0 and Verl 4-3.

Their winning run has ended with a 4-2 loss at Alemannia Aachen on 10th May, but bounced back in the final round with a 2-0 home win against Borussia Dortmund II.

Saarbrucken had 0.42-0.48 expected goals, 50% possession and 9-15 shots in the 2. Bundesliga playoffs first tie against Eintracht Braunscweig which they lost 2-0 last Friday.

Team News

Leon Bell Bell and Niklas Tauer are injured for the home team.

Visitors have a bit lengthier injury list, Jacopo Sardo (torn knee ligament), Richard Neudecker (adductor injury), Amine Naifi (cruciate ligament tear) and Simon Stehle (syndesmosis ligament tear) all being ruled out.

Eintracht Braunschweig: Hoffmann, Bicakcic, Rittmuller, Jaeckel, Krausse, Kohler, Tempelmann, Polter, Conteh, Gomez, Philippe

Verdict

Eintracht Braunschweig v Saarbrucken

A total of 24 goals were scored in Saarbrucken’s last five league contests (scored 12, conceded 12) and I don’t expect them to give up after losing the first tie. Over 2.5 goals is my top prediction.
